1TB SATA M.2 SSD for everyday computing

This 1TB internal solid state drive uses the M.2 2280 form factor and a SATA III interface, making it suitable for laptops and desktops that support SATA-based M.2 slots. It is built with Samsung V-NAND 3-bit MLC memory and an MJX controller backed by 1GB of Low Power DDR4 SDRAM cache for consumer workloads.

Sustained write behaviour with 600TB endurance

The drive is rated for 600TB total bytes written and a 1,500,000 hour MTBF, indicating durability for long-term workloads. Sequential write speeds reach up to 520 MBps, while 4KB random write performance scales from 42,000 IOPS at QD1 to 88,000 IOPS at QD32, allowing steady throughput during extended file transfers or rendering tasks.

Low power draw and broad temperature range

Active power consumption averages 3.0W with a maximum burst of 4.5W, keeping heat output modest in typical use. The operating temperature range spans 0°C to 70°C, and the drive includes AES 256-bit hardware encryption compliant with TCG Opal and IEEE 1667 standards for data security without a performance penalty.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the 860 EVO M.2 draw during all-day use?

The drive averages 3.0 W in active operation and peaks at 4.5 W in burst mode, with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.

What must my motherboard provide for this M.2 2280 SATA III drive to work?

An M.2 slot keyed for SATA III (6 Gb/s) and a mounting screw; the drive includes no cables or brackets.

Will the 860 EVO M.2 run alongside my older SATA 3 Gb/s SSD or HDD without slowing down?

Yes — it negotiates SATA III (6 Gb/s) but is backward compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s ports, and its 1 GB DDR4 cache handles mixed workloads independently.
